Chapter 28- resolutions


    JULIANA''S POV


    I stepped into the dark room, revealing my father tied up to a chair with blood dripping from his face.


    Adrian stood towering over him as he repeatedly punched him in the face.


    "Tell us who you''re working for you piece of sh?t" he spat and my father just smiled smugly showing his


    bloody teeth.


    "Adrian, that''s enough" Tyberias said and Adrian hesitantly stopped but not without giving my father


    onest hard punch that knocked his smirk right off his face.


    "He''s not speaking" Adrian said.


    I then reached for Tyberias'' gun that he had tucked into his pants and pointed it to my father''s head.


    They both looked at me in shock.


    "You won''t actually shoot me. You''ll never have the balls to do it because your nothing but a pathetic bi-


    " he began but was stopped as 2 bullets pierced his skull.


    On cue, blood dripped from his head down his body and then onto the ground.


    Tyberias whistled lowly "I wasn''t expecting that"


    "That was hot" Adrianmented


    "Shut the hell up" Tyberias muttered and roughly shoved Adrian.


    I rolled my eyes, they''re so childish.


    "Can you take me to Este please?" I asked Tyberias.


    He nodded and led me out the room.


    We found Este in the living room ying with Maria.


    "Jay?" She said and looked up at me. Guilt instantly flooded through me.


    "Hey, you" I smiled.


    "Are you still angry at me" she sighed.


    "I was never angry at you" I said.


    I then heard Tyberias and Maria walk out the room, leaving us alone.


    "Come, I need to tell you something" I said and patted myp.


    She quickly came and climbed onto me.


    "Mom, has gone away for a while" I said


    "It''s okay, she''ll be back soon, like always" she smiled.


    "No, Este. Mom isn''ting back this time"


    "Where is she?"


    "She''s in a better ce" I said.


    "But she didn''t even say goodbye" she sighed.


    "I know. But she loves you a lot, just remember that, okay?" I said, she nodded and I pulled her into a


    tight hug.


    "Do you want to y with me?" She asked.


    "Of course"


    "Can Ty-bear y with us as well?" She asked and Iughed. She had taken a liking to Tyberias.


    She yelled his name and he quickly entered the room.


    "What are we ying?" He asked as if he had been listening to our whole conversation.


    "We''re ying sleeping beauty. I''m Maleficent. Jay, you can be Princess Aurora. And Ty-bear, you can


    be Prince Phillip."


    30 minutester


    Iid in the middle of the living room with my eyes closed and my long hair spread out as I heard Tyber-


    I mean Prince Phillip approach me.


    He knelt down besides me and I held my breath knowing what was going to happen next. This would


    be the first time we would be kissing since I was kidnapped and I''ve missed it so much


    "Kiss her" whispered Este


    I felt him lean down, his breath fanning my face. His fingers tucked the hair that fell on my face behind


    my ear. He stroked my cheek with his thumb, the simple action causing tingles to spread through my


    body.


    Without waiting any longer his lips lightly brushed mine, delicately, like butterfly wings. It was just long


    enough that I could inhale and taste his minty breath. I reached up to y with his hair and deepened


    the kiss.


    "That''s enough" interrupted Este and I rolled my eyes as she tugged on Tyberias'' hair, pulling him


    away from me.


    ?_? ?_? ?_? ?_?


    "There''s something else I need to talk to you about" Tyberias said to me.


    "What is it" I said looking up from my phone.


    "Anthony, my driver that double crossed us, is in the basement down at the warehouse. I was going to


    kill him but I didn''t want to do it without telling you first."


    I thought for a second, did I want him dead? I hated him for ying a part in my kidnapping but he was


    also just a desperate father willing to do anything for his ill daughter.


    "Let him go." I said.


    "What? Why? He''s the reason you got kidnapped. I''m not going to let him go."


    "Tyberias his daughter has cancer, he needed the money. Don''t tell me you wouldn''t do the same if you


    were in his position."


    "I wouldn''t get an innocent girl kidnapped just for some money. He could''vee to me and asked for


    help if he was struggling with the medical bills."


    "Tyberias, you''re not exactly the most approachable person to ask for help." I stated.


    "Please let him go. For me." I asked and rubbed a hand over his stubble.


    "Can I at least shoot him in the leg" he asked and I red at him.


    "In the arm?" He asked again.


    "Tyberias!"


    "Fine" he sighed


    ^-^ ^-^


    We were both now lying on Tyberias'' bed while I was on his chest. His arms were wrapped protectively


    around me.


    "I missed this. I missed having you in my arms" he mumbled. He was probably referring to how I locked


    myself in my room and barely came out for thest few days.


    "I missed it too. I''m sorry for being so distant"


    "I could barely sleep or eat while you were gone. I think I was suffering from withdrawal symptoms or


    something." He joked and Iughed lightly.


    A few moments offortable silence passed.


    "I really appreciate having you in my life, Tyberias" I smiled and looked up at him.


    "I would appreciate myself too if I was you" he smirked.


    I scoffed and lightly punched his chest.


    "You ruined the moment" I pouted.


    "Don''t worry, we can make many more moments" he grinned and flipped us over so he was on top of


    me.N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    "I''m tired. I just want to cuddle" I yawned. He nodded and pecked my nose before hugging me from


    behind.


    I closed my eyes and just when sleep was about to overtake me, I heard a noise that I knew all too


    well.


    "Get off the PS4, Tyberias and get back to cuddling me" Imanded without even opening my eyes


    and I heard him sigh.


    I smiled when I felt him behind me again.


    A couple minutes passed and I felt myself doze in and out of consciousness.


    "Are you awake?" I heard Tyberias whisper.


    I was too tired to answer so I ignored him.


    When he didn''t hear me answer he slowly moved away from me and I heard the PS4 start up sound


    again.


    Is he serious?


    I shot up from my position and he looked at me like a frightened little boy. I reached for the controller in


    his shaking hands and threw it across the room.


    "This is ''us'' time''" I scolded and he nodded obediently.


    He quickly went back to cuddling me and I smiled to myself.
